A few years back, there was a fight and security kicked those guys out right away. Even though the flyers say, "If you want to park together, you...
I've never been in the spectator parking lot except to turn around, but it's quite a walk to the car show area. A lot of parking in the show...
From the reaction to this thread, I thought no one was going. However, I just checked my pre-registration packet, I'm number 1046. I guess it's...
Just a hassle if you get a ticket. Getting the ticket signed off if you get caught, then turning it in to the court. In California, you have to...
I went there twice, but from where I live, it was a 3 1/2 hour drive in rush hour on Friday. When there's no traffic, it's 45 minutes otherwise. I...
I'm going to be in the pre-registered line at 4 am.
Check your local vehicle code. There's usually a law against tampering with a license. The ones that do are restorations using the same colors....
In years past, Bad Bob had a caravan but it was usually posted by now.
I would recommend the earlier, the better. The line to get in is very long. In years past, when I left at 1 pm, spectator cars were still lined up...
General Admission is $5. Spectator parking is $10. Last year, the show was sold out by 7 am. Many of those that brought a car and had...
Mine was powder coated gloss black. Damp rag was all the clean up it needed.
If I were a lawyer for the other side, I would say NADA value, the highest being restore pristine condition. An argument could be made if it was...
Just to let you know how big the Pomona Swap meet is, if you walk the entire swap, it's 14 miles, up and down all the aisles.
Here's my old 3 window. Wish the pictures were better. [ATTACH][ATTACH] [ATTACH][ATTACH]
Your car made we want a '62 Galaxie.
Oh man, I can't believe I missed it. I'm sitting here wearing one of their T-shirts.
I have shaved door handles on my '52 Chevy running Auto-locs plus a cable under the hood in case the Auto-loc fails, which it did on the drivers door.
I use a McCleoud steet/strip clutch and I was very unhappy. Pedal pressure was terrible for sitting in Southern California traffic. I should have...
I like the US Radiator "Desert Cooler" series. It's a tri-pass, 4 row design and they're direct-fit. You can get one in aluminum or copper/brass....
Get insurance for the whole replacement value comes to mind. I had one car where the steering wheel was removable and I disconnected the battery...
Thanks for taking the time to post. Very enjoyable.
I run a 4 row, triple pass radiator from U.S. Radiator. It's one of their Dessert Cooler Series since I ran A/C and didn't want overheating...
Stick it on an auction site, you'll find out what it's worth.
I had Hagerty back in 2000. 4 years later, I switched to Grundy at half the price. Then the local Grundy agent didn't mail in my premiums and I...
Two thumbs up and your '55.
I find that I always go to the discussion board and rarely visit the customs or hot rod boards. The one good thing? I'm not on for hours anymore. LOL
I have 2 friends that use their '48 Ford F-1's as daily drivers and going to car shows. Going to car shows, they haul BBQ's, EZ-up, chairs cooler,...
There's an elderly lady around here that has 16 '61 Chevys. She has each model, most with 409's. She even has a '61 Chevy race car. The exception?...
